Anew         My oldest teenager asked me last night why I use a day and a night cream.  Why don't I just use my body lotion? For one thing body lotion is made for our bodies but doesn't include our hands, feet and faces.  This is because these areas need a bit more specific formulas due to the fact that they just see more damage through out the day and different types of damage at that.  As to why there is a day and night version of the face creams (and some foot) it is because they do different jobs on top of their moisturizing. Day versus night creams.     Day creams are of coarse to do their job of moisturizing just as the night creams do but a day cream is also the protector of the set.  A good day cream will have SPF to protect you from the  damage the sun will cause.  Night cream on the other hand will have soothers and elements to help repair any damages that have occurred, past and present to o...

Click to buy As I blogged earlier Avon has a whole new line of items out for the home and entertainment and these are some of my favorites right here.  Now I mentioned the wine chiller before as well and yes we are wine lovers! I know, that's why we work wine festivals.  These stemless  glasses and appetizer plates can be used without the wine, though I don't know why you wouldn't want wine!  The small wooden plates actually fit onto of most wine glasses not just ours but ours are pretty nice.  Sturdier then paper being able to sit on top of the glasses gives you and your guests a free hand to take more! Or if you are like me the hand you need to wave around when you talk! The glasses are $20 a set of four and the 4 piece set of plates run at $15, but if you buy them as a set right now they are on special for only $30. Paired with a nice wine and cheese these would make a great gift for friend, family, or hostess. If you would like a be...

Watch the video  One of my favorite things about selling Avon is the community.  It is great, to say the least.  Hands on district managers help to build a "family" in each district.  Representatives around the country have built nation wide families on social media outlets. Lots of advice, support and experience all at each rep's finger tips.  Not to mention our Avon brothers out there! Yes our family includes many men selling Avon and making good money doing so!  It is easy to sign up online .  Kit comes quickly and there is an option for a larger kit with your first order that is well worth the $100 it costs. (Strapped for cash the original $15 kit is enough to get anyone started)  Amazing incentives for new representatives insures those who work for it will be bringing in the bonus money as well as free products!   There is never a better time to start then right now !

Well as a family we finally had enough money saved up to take that much anticipated Disney World trip!  Every penny went to savings, I mean this literally, as we saved a huge jar of change for this. Every coin we got as change went into this jar.  The kids did odd jobs around the block to have spending money as well as stashing birthday money. We drove the 20 hours instead of flying all 6 of us which saved a huge chunk but maybe a little loss of sanity.... All that and by the time we had the arrangements made there wasn't a whole lot of cash left to buy mementos.  That doesn't mean we didn't get any though! We brought home a bunch of little goodies! First and foremost plan your trip well. Watch for deals on the meal plan especially. You may look at the cost of the meal plan and think you can do better, and if you only eat the fast food you can come close but this plan is so very worth it if you have any thoughts on eating in the good sit down restaurants and character ...
